Journal entry by Katie Martin —
From California to Maryland and across the ocean too, we have heard from many of you who were able to view the virtual service honoring Steven. The service was recorded and can be viewed here.
COVID-19 kept Steven’s parents, brother, sister, and their families from attending, but pictures of each person were placed on a seat in the front row. We are thankful for technology which allowed them to join virtually as well as in spirit. We have included a few pictures from the service including a close-up of our shirts featuring favorite Steven quotes.
Steven's family manta was Love God and Jesus, Listen Well, Try Hard and Have Fun. We had fun last night enjoying a bonfire and earthly s' mores. As Steven's legacy lives on through his family we encourage you to love one another, love each other, and have fun.
Thank you for walking beside this family through a journey they never wanted to travel. Your support, prayers, and encouragement have sustained Erin, her children, and extended family. At a date to be determined, we will host a BBQ and bench dedication in Boiling Springs and look forward to celebrating with you then. Until then, please keep this family in your thoughts and prayers as they begin to travel a new journey with invisible strings of love reaching to Steven in heaven.
